State Press Association.

N. ~. Clty item.
The annual meeting of the State Press Asso-
citation will take place at Lake Charles on
June Ia. Late press conventions i'll Texas.
Mississippi andAlabama excited wide spread
interest aud were largely attended, and from
advices received the assembly OF the trhte'-
nifty of Louisiana will be more numerous than
on any previous occasion
The first meeting of the Press Association
was at Baton Rouge in 1880. The conven-
tion has since met, once ut Baton Rouge, tonr
times in New Orleans. next at Shl leveport
and last year in Monroe. 1t is proposed to
hold these reunions in different sections that
journalists may acquire by personal obserVa
tion q more intimate knowledge OF the t"pog-
raphy, industries and people of the State that
can be obtained from written aud verbal re
ports.
1t is needless to dwell on the great impor
tance of this association to the State press.
In no other interest is iU more vital to pros
perity that united action should prevail on
problems pressing for solution. Advertising
agencies, gratis work and kindred questions
involving the welfare, and in some cases the
existence, of the newspaper demand that
remedial measures be effected by sufficient
number of journals to give the force OF law I"
whatever regulation may be adopted.
Northern advertising agencies, taking ad-
vantage of the lively competition existing
among newspapers have, by skillfully exciting
contests in undertaking, not only reduced to
comparatively insignificant figures the renu-
neration for advertisements from abroad, but
they have trespassed Oh nearer domain and
made cuts in local prices.
In sOmo parishes rival journals, i'll order to
crush competitors, have actually paid preml-
ums for the singular privilege OF doing the
public work. How long paper eau work
for nothing and give the printers devil his
due, )" has not yet been determined, bnt it is OBJ
vious that such practices will impair the etii.
cheney of the press and sap the foundations OF
its prosperity.
Besides material interests, which can be so
greatly promoted by strengthening the mem
bersbip of the Press Association, there are
other objects to be attained by these reunions
ofjournalists. Mutual acquaintance cannot
fail to produce more temperate discussions be-
tween editors OF opposing camps. Friend
ships formed ut these assemblies will snrely
result in mutual benefit.
These will give an added interest to the ex-
changes. aud the ups and downs of Journal,
istc life will be watched with a considerate and
sympathetic eye. The cordial clasp of fellow
ship will cement the ties that bind the broth
erhood together, and the vision Of the editor
will encompass broader sphere than the
bounds of his narrow sanctum.

Ieprosy.

Mr.. T. G. Chachere of Prud 'homme
City has received a letter, of date June
1st, from Mr.. James L. Scott of Lair,
Ky, in which Mr.. Scott incloses let
ter published in the Chicago Times from
some New Orleans correspondent writ
ing upon the existence of leprosy in La
fonrche and st. Martinsville, and which
he remarks is calculated to do great in :
jury to the immigration movement to
this portion of our State, unless some
decisive measures are taken to isolate
the disease and prevent it's spreading
into other portions of the surrounding
country. Mr.. Scott is the gentleman,
who with Mr.. Lail, from Bourbon Co.,,
KY, recently purchased and negotiated
for several hundred acres of lands In
our parish, and who 18th several other
families expect to move here in Nov
ember next. We think Mr.. Scott's fears
about this disease groundless SO far as
st. Landry is concerned. We are more
than fifty miles from St Martinsville !;
besides the State Board of Health have
emphatically declared that leprosy is
not contagious, citing cases where two
leprous women had married and that
the husbands had never taken the dis
ease, although the parties lived together
for long series of years. Although
the disease is sometimes hereditary,
yet it is comparatively rare, often skip
ping generations before any taint will
be shown in the offspring. Again many
children having leprous parents never
take the disease.
There are but eight pronounced and
suspicious cases at st. Martinsville and
steps have been taken which will event
ually stamp the disease out The peo-
pie, here, feel no mere alarm than if
they lived in Kentucky or some other
remote State, and we advise citizens of
other States who contemplate or desire
settling in our beautiful country and
delightful climate to come on. We are
not only safe from leprosy, but all other
contagious which scourge some sections.
The health of our country is unsurpass-
ed by any on the globe.
This correspondent of the Chicago
Times, while stating things in the main
correct, has presented facts in such a
shape as to excite undue alarm, where,
really, little or no danger exists.
